Modelling prepayment in mortgages with a bank exercise
Home loans are one of the longest-term products in the Banking sector and are exposed to multiple macroeconomic cycles throughout their maturity. Each home loan contract includes the right of the loan to pay at any time ... -
Modelling surface plasmon resonances of arrays of nano particles on a dielectric substrate using discrete dipole approximation with surface interaction (DDA-SI)
(2017-06)Analysis of surface plasmon resonance of arbitrary shape nano-particles on a substrate is important for many engineering applications. The strong optical absorption of noble metal nano-particles is due to the localized ... -
Modern data management strategies for machine learning tasks: A sports analytics use case on cloud platform
There is no doubt that data is the most valuable asset today. The efforts of enterprises in digital transformation and creating a data-driven culture are the most concrete indicators of this. Nowadays, where data transforms ... -
Molecular simulations of bio-MOF membranes for uremic toxin separation
(2021-08-27)Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have recently gained importance for gas and liquid separations due to their large surface areas and tuneable pore sizes. The accumulation of urea and creatinine which are small and ... -
Multi-compartment inventory routing problem with adjustable compartment sizes
(2021-06-10)In this study, we focus on a problem where the supplier manages the customers’ in ventories and coordinates the distribution of multiple products to customers. Hereby the supplier can minimize the transportation costs by ... -
Multi-criteria decision-making approach for risk management in modular construction projects
While there exists an ever-rising interest in modular construction projects, the current performance does not depict its full capabilities. This is mainly due to practicing 'stick-built' methods under a roof, implying ... -
Multi-hop hybrid FSO/RF communication systems
(2014-08)The reliability of free-space optical (FSO) links is severely restricted by weather-dependent atmospheric phenomena including absorption, scattering and turbulence. An efficient solution is to build hybrid links where a ... -
Multi-lingual depression-level assessment from conversational speech using acoustic and text features
(2018-12-19)Depression is a common mental health problem around the world with a large burden on economies, well-being, hence productivity, of individuals. Early diagnosis and detection of depression can aid treatment, but diagnosis ... -
Multi-pick round robin arbiter
(2012-08)In this thesis, we propose two multi(m)-pick Round Robin Arbiter (RRA) architectures. An m-pick RRA selects the m topmost requests out of n inputs with priority order indicated by an internally kept pointer (with an update ... -
Multi-scale binary similarity a local binary pattern variant for face recognition
(2018-08)Face recognition problem were studied for more than four-decade, and many descriptors and neural network architectures have been proposed since then. The aim is simple, extract features from the same subjects for training ... -
Multi-view structure from motion software platform for augmented reality applications
(2014-05)Sensör, bilgisayar ve görselleme teknolojilerindeki hızlı gelişme, hareketten yapı çıkarımı tekniklerinin navigasyon, insan-bilgisayar etkileşimi, eğitim, eğlence ve eklenmiş gerçeklik gibi uygulamalarda kullanımı nı ... -
Multilabel classification with neural network
Multi-label classification has huge importance for several applications, it is also a challenging research topic. It is a kind of supervised learning that contains binary targets. The distance between multilabel and binary ... -
Multiple-description coded streaming video multicast over software-defined networs
(2014-08)Video has become one of the most prominent applications of the Internet. Many of the video streaming applications involve the distribution of content from a CDN source to a large population of interested clients. However, ... -
A multistage scenario optimization procedure for capacity planning in TV production final assembly lines
Vestel Electronics is a large-scale TV producer that has an important share in the European television market. High End Factory, where Vestel assembles 20 different TVs in size, consists of 14 final assembly lines. High ... -
N-hop influence maximization problem under deterministic linear threshold model
The Influence Maximization Problem (IMP) finds a set of highly influential nodes within a social network in order to maximize the spread of influence. We consider that people can have influence on their direct (1-hop), ... -
Nano-scale chemically modified thin film characterization for chemical mechanical planarization applications
(2015-01)The aim of the microelectronics industry has historically been achieving increasing functionality through decreasing the device sizes while simultaneously reducing the unit manufacturing costs. This objective has been ... -
Negotiation-based decentralized conflict resolution in multi-agent path finding
This thesis addresses the problem of Multi-Agent Path Finding problem where multiple agents aim to reach their destination in a grid world without any colli sion. It aims to provide a solution achieving good trade-off ... -
Neural network estimatorsfor optimal tour lengths of TSP instances with arbitrary node distributions
To achieve operational efficiency in logistics, we need to solve complex routing problems. Due to their complexity, these problems are often solved sequentially, i.e., using cluster-first route-second (CFRS) type frameworks. ... -
A new LED driver design with CRM flyback topology and high power factor and low total harmonic distortion
(2018-01)In many of today's solid-state lighting (SSL) applications, Critical Conduction Mode (CRM) Flyback PFC converter is a popular solution due to its limited component count and simple structure with respect to other switched ... -
The new luxury of home decoration objects in Turkey: A theoretical framework for understanding the consumption motivations and status relationships since 2000s
In the 2000s, changing socio-economic and political structures of Turkey have affected luxury consumption practices. A new modern conservative class has emerged in Turkey. The conservative lifestyle has gained a new dimension ...
